Chelsea

Chelsea is a seasoned assassin working for the Revolutionary Army, having successfully carried out countless missions. She was the sole survivor of the section of Night Raid that was stationed outside of the capital who were destroyed by Esdeath's Three Beasts warriors and joined the section of Night Raid led by Najenda afterwards. While she is somewhat aloof and carefree when not on the job, she is also extremely objective and is often quite blunt when voicing her opinions. Despite her nature, she becomes attracted to Tatsumi, admiring his resolve.[ch. 28] Her Teigu, "Phantasmagoria: Gaea Foundation" is a cosmetics box that allows her to change her physical appearance at will.This allows her to get within arms reach of her targets where she uses acupuncture needles to stab her targets in vital locations. After ambushing and killing Bols, she tries to kill Kurome in the same way, but it fails as Kurome survives to the puncture inflicted by her and then she is brutally killed by Kurome's two last corpse puppets. Her Teigu was apparently destroyed. Her decapitated head was placed in the town square in order to hurt Night Raid's morale.

Akame

Akame also known as Akame of the Demon Sword Murasame, is one of the members of the assassination group, Night Raid and one of the main protagonist, along with Tatsumi (and the title character) of the story. Akame is a young girl who, before meeting Tatsumi, establishes herself as the Empire's top ranking assassin. Akame's cold-hearted and serious demeanor stems from her hellish training the Empire forced her and her sister through after being sold by their parents. After being tasked one mission to assassinate former general Najenda she is convinced by her to not only spare her but also to instead join her crusade against the Empire by becoming a member of Night Raid. Her treason sparks an intense rivalry between fellow assassin and sibling Kurome, along with a mutual desire to be the one to end the other. Akame is often considered to be one of the stronger members of Night Raid, slaying even the strongest of enemies with minimal effort. Her hellish assassination training allows her combat ability to be on par with those as powerful as General within the military levels of the Empire. Her Teigu, One Cut Killer: Murasame, is a katana known for being coated in an immensely deadly poison that can kill those cut by it within seconds. In the anime, during a last confronting battle with Esdeath, Akame uses the hidden ability of her Demon Sword Murasame which grants her superhuman powers, ending in a victory after cutting Esdeath and killing her with the One Cut Killer. She takes all the blame of the assaults done by Night Raid so she could clean Najenda's name. Later she is seen wandering around in the desert outside the Kingdom slaying bandits and mercenaries.
